Quantity per Container: 8 Oz


Vitamin C is a water soluble nutrient well known for its vital role in the immune system.  Vitamin C is also necessary for the production of collagen (a structural protein in connective tissue) and is therefore important for skin, bone, and joint health.  Vitamin C is needed for amino acid metabolism, neurotransmitter synthesis, and the utilization of many nutrients, such as folic acid and iron.  It is also a highly effective antioxidant that can help maintain healthy tissues by neutralizing free radicals generated during normal metabolism and exposure to environmental stressors.  Sodium ascorbate is a non-bitter, non-acidic, buffered form of vitamin C in a highly soluble form.

NOW® Sodium Ascorbate Powder is an inexpensive buffered form of Vitamin C and is pharmaceutical grade.

Barely there flavor for kids

by Randy

My daughters like it as the least offensive C powder flavor. It’s about twice the $ compared to other Na-C supps, being pharma-grade. The diff is the flavor. Maybe absorption, but dunno.

Excellent product with a problem

by Donna

Sodium Ascorbate has been called the form of Vitamin C that our body uses the most. I love it because it is virtually tasteless -- although it makes plain water taste better in my opinion -- so it is easy to add to any non-hot drink, AND because it is non-acidic without adding unnecessary calcium as other buffered Vitamin C supplements do. I had to buy this brand because the Source Naturals was out-of-stock. What I received was an enormous plastic bottle that was only half-full. (Insert FROWN.) Yeah, yeah, settles during shipping and all that.... It also costs more than the same amount of Source Naturals. If there is some reason to choose one brand over the other, just let me know.
